Despite the fact that it airs on Friday nights, Blue Bloods has continued to be a ratings success story for CBS. However, scripted shows tend to get more expensive as the years wear on. How long will this police family drama continue? Will it be cancelled or will it be renewed for an eighth season? Stay tuned.
Blue Bloods revolves around the Irish-American Reagans, a multi-generational family of cops dedicated to New York City law enforcement. The cast includes Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan, Will Estes, Len Cariou, Amy Carlson, Sami Gayle, Vanessa Ray, and Marisa Ramirez.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
3/23 update: Blue Bloods has been renewed for an eighth season. Details here.

For comparisons: The sixth season of Blue Bloods averaged a 1.24 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 10.50 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Blue Bloods TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for season eight on CBS?
This is one of the few TV shows worth watching. Please keep it going!
This show has, from it’s beginning, been one of TVs best. It is as good now as ever, maybe even better. Blue Bloods should be a keeper. Don’t let it slip away!
KEEP BLUE BLOODS FOR AT LEAST THE EIGTH SEASON PLEASE
Omg please renew it!!!! There are not too many good shows on anymore. This one is awesome!!!
Please renew it .It’s the best show i have watched and i love how the family no matter what always have family dinner time
Keep the show . Best show on TV hands down. I’m a cop and believe this is one of the most down to earth cop shows that shows what we deal with on a regular basis.
I will begin by saying Blues Bloods is my hands down all time favorite Police tv shows I have watched. I love the cast and interesting stories of the how Commissioner handles his family life and the challenges of his career. The Sunday dinner gatherings and conversational dialogue is priceless.
I hope Blue Bloods continues for another season. Show continues to maintain quality acting with each episode being relevant to current issues. Cast changes always have unexpected effects but this series adapted accordingly to present an excellent and challenging experience.
Do not cancel this show!
Would be disappointed if show was cancelled….Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg make the show. The supporting cast is very good and put the icing on the cake……….
LOVE the show but wish they would of kept the original Nikki ! Not a fan of Gayle but Hope the show “dresses her up” a little more in the new season ! Can’t wait to see if Jamie and Edie’s relationship goes further!
